We have directly followed the formation of and the thymus colonization by pro-T lymphocytes in the developing C57BL/6 mouse embryo by using the monoclonal antibody JORO 37-5 specific for pro-T lymphocytes, immunofluorescence staining and flow fluorocytometry or microscopy analysis. The results show

The process of T-lymphocyte differentiation within the thymus involves a series of molecular interactions. In this work we have carried out an analysis of the chick thymus microenvironment in order to evaluate its heterogeneity during development. We have produced 11 monoclonal antibodies whose stai
## Abstract Gene expression in thymic T cells during late embryogenesis and early growth in chicks was examined using cDNA microarrays. Gene expression patterns were profiled into nine clusters by using self‐organizing maps (SOM) clustering analysis. The expression patterns for a set of genes confi
